Frnt Susp _ Lower Contral Arm #2 Removal
I go to remove this supsension component to replace the bushing and I am myphed at how to do it. It looks like the piece is bolted from the top through the sub frame. I can't believe this to be the case so I am asking for some assistance, I am obviously missing something here.
The problem is the bushing on my passenger side is cracked all the way around and I figure this has to hurt stability and probably adds to the clunk factor of the car. Any suggestions appreciated, see pic below the part I am refering to is circled and I previously asked if anyone knew the name. Thanks!

You may be right, I think you can adjust caster with some sort of shim. The diagram calls it lower control arm #2.
Question is how do you remove it. Bushing which is to the rear has cracked and needs replacement.
